Who we are

Built in the field.

Calvin spent three years in community solar as a field rep and team lead before building CSR. He built the back office around what developers need: developer relations, compliance, enrollment reconciliation, and reporting.

Calvin McIntosh, Founder & CEO

  • Founder & CEO

    Three years in the field as a rep and team lead. Owns developer relations, compliance, reconciliation, and reporting.

Income-qualified volume

Why our LMI volume holds up

  • The Lifeline pipeline

    Much of our LMI volume comes from Lifeline work. We help eligible households apply for Lifeline phone service, then help them enroll in community solar.

  • Trusted in the community

    We have built trust with food shelves, pantries, and other organizations that serve income-qualified households.

  • Se habla español

    Spanish-language support in the field and on the phone, from first contact to enrollment.

  4. 4

    Documented LMI subscriber

    A complete file, checked before hand-off.

Documentation

Built for Category 4

Files built to the standard developers use for Section 48E(h) Category 4 (Qualified Low-Income Economic Benefit) projects.

What goes in an LMI file

One of these two:

  • A

    Categorical eligibility. A benefit or award letter from a qualifying program, plus Lifeline approvals where the developer accepts them.

  • B

    Income verification. Household income at or below 80% of area median income or 200% of the federal poverty level.

  • QA before hand-off

    Every file is checked against your list before it reaches you.

  • Your list, your rules

    We work to each developer’s document list, recency rules, and file format.

  • No uploads on our site

    Homeowners never upload documents on our website.

Commercial
